Description
The Sunday Times reported in 1947 that [Native Affairs Minister Ross] McDonald said that there was a lot of interest shown in an exhibition of drawings by children from Carrolup. All the pictures were sold, raising a total of £74. This would be worth $4,430 in 2011. The Minister said this money would be spent 'in the interests of the children.'
